When laptop computers first appeared they were large and bulky, often down on performance compared to traditional desktop computers, and a lot more expensive. As technology has moved forward though, computer parts have become smaller and cheaper, and the price of laptops has dropped dramatically. They are now seen as a viable alternative to desktop pc’s, and are even preferred by many business users due to the ease with which they can be carried between work and home.
System Specification
Generally speaking, desktop pcs have better system specifications than laptops, although the gap has closed a lot in the last few years. The small size of laptops means that space for extra components is limited, and that existing ones can be forced close together, generating large amounts of heat.
In terms of memory size, desktops are usually much larger than laptops. Most Euroffice laptops have a 40 or 60 GB memory, whilst desktops can be in the hundreds. However with most offices using shared networks for storing files on, this isn’t really an issue. For personal use computers, desktops offer a lot more storage.
Office Use
Most offices still contain desktops for each employee, but laptops are becoming more commonplace. The smaller screen size can be overcome with a widescreen laptop, and its smaller memory doesn’t cause a problem with network drives being used to store files. The laptops portability is useful for moving around the office sharing files and presentations, and work can easily be taken home on them or around the country for meetings. As the prices come down, many company’s are buying both desktops and laptops for well traveled employees.
Personal Use
For general use, there isn’t much to choose between desktops and laptop notebooks. Desktops offer high performance programs and are popular in home offices, but more people are choosing laptops because of how little room in the house they take up, and because where the user has wireless internet, they can browse online from anywhere in the home.
